DSA Student Finance 2026/27: Disabled Students

This page is a guide to Disabled Students' Allowance (DSA) for 2026/27, covering who qualifies, the grant of up to £27,783 a year in England, the DSA slim form and DSA1 form, evidence, needs assessment and timelines. People land on it searching for terms like 'dsa calculator' to understand what support they can get and how to apply, though the visible content is partial and does not show a calculator.

Disabled or long-term-ill UK students (undergraduate, postgraduate, part-time) and their parents, researching eligibility and how to apply for DSA.

A mention would suit brands relevant to disabled students' study needs, such as assistive technology, note-taking or dyslexia software, laptops, or accessible study services, and perhaps student banking or budgeting tools. It would read most naturally near the sections on what DSA covers (equipment and helpers) or after the application steps, and fewer brands fit outside disability-support and student-finance contexts given the sensitive audience.
